Will this work on a sony alpha 230 camera if I were to use a canon lens?

It's for Canon FD mounts, The new ones are EF I believe. The FD lenses were discontinued in the early 90's. You also have to shoot in manual mode as autofocus will not work.

This will allow the use of a Canon FD manual focus lens on a Sony Alpha. It is NOT for the new style Canon AF lenses for the digital Canon. Also, in the menu of the Sony, the camera has to be set to fire without lens attached. This is in the custom menu listed as Release w/o lens and it must be set to enable. Make sure that you can find this option in the menu before you purchase the adapter. Not all of the Sony's have this ability and the entry level models may not. Put the mode dial on P,A,S, or M to check out the full menu.

No, it will not work. This lens is based on the four-thirds standard, which is not compatible with Canon cameras.There may be some sort of adapter between the 2 standards, but it's probably not worth the effort.You can read more about the four-thirds standard and compatible devices at http://four-thirds.org/

Sony dSLRs use the Alpha mount so the Alpha mount version of this lens will work on these cameras. As for whether it would be too heavy, that is a matter of personal opinion. The cameras are built have these and even heavier lenses mounted so that won't be a problem. It will be heavier and bigger than some of the other prime lenses out there, of course, since it's a larger aperture, macro lens.

If I recall correctly, there is a model that has the connection for the Canon line. This model is for the Sony Alpha only.

It appears that compatibility is based on whether the lens is an "A mount" or an "E mount" with "a" meaning alpha. So, they should be compatible due to both being members of the "alpha" family. This seems to apply to accessories as well. To be certain, however, I would refer to the Sony website where you can view camera compatibility with specific lenses and accessories. I know there are reasonably priced flash adapters, if necessary.

This is for a Sony DSLR Alpha. I have used with my Sony Alpha A100 and A77. It is best to review your manual.

The adapter connects any alpha mount lens to your E mount camera...I don't know if your lens is a Sony Alpha mount or not...Carl Zeiss makes lenses for many cameras

I do not see why it would not work if you have a SLR and the lens has a Sony mount. I believe the Sony has vibration control built into the camera and this lens does not have VC so it should work, however to be sure, go to Sony website and/or sigma and ask customer service this question.

The adapter I got only allows the lens to fit on the canon, but autofocus does not work. I don't have a sigma lens, so I'm not sure whether yours would autofocus.

Hi, I have a lens 55-200 for Sony Alpha, Could you tell me what is correct the size for it?

I'm not sure, should any Sony Alpha. If the plug that goes into the Shutter release that will make the difference. Has work.

I believe the Sony Alpha series are compatible with 'A' mount lenses, which this Tamron lens is.....So Yes!

Based on the "will this lens work on my camera" drop-down boxes, the Sony Alpha 3000 is not listed. It seems that the Tamron 70-300mm lens is not compatible. You may want to perform an Internet search for compatible lenses for your camera. LensHero .com is a good starting point. Good Luck.

NO! This is a micro 4/3 mount lens. Your Sony has a proprietary lens mount for E mount series lenses (or Alpha series with adapter). So unless there's an adapter out there it won't work.

I use this adapter to mount sigma 100-300mm pk mount on my alpha6000. It seem to work (without autofocus and exit).

I am using it on a different alpha series sony camera with great results. I imagine it would be compatible with the whole alpha series as the connectors on your camera look just like mine!
